Home is Where Your Story Begins

It’s a gift, that environment you created, that space you cultivated, even if you just fluffed the throw pillows on your couch – when you take the time to make others feel comfortable and welcome in your home you are offering them a gift. It’s not always about having the nicest and the best. If I think back on every home I’ve had, through every season of life I’ve been in, there is one common thread through them all – it was a welcoming environment. Whether my living room was made up of thrift store furniture, or when we could finally afford to buy a new couch.

New Countertop in the Kitchen

I’m so excited with how it turned out, and how it feels in our kitchen now! It’s so much brighter, and it truly feels like it was always supposed to be this way. It was worth the wait, I can tell you that. I’ve wanted our island to have this type of of countertop ever since we purchased our home 7 years ago. So if that gives you any indication as to just how excited I truly am, that you get it

Hi Friends!

Thank you so much for all your sweet comments about our new outdoor dining area that we extended! We have already been using it as our primary eating spot, and I’m currently typing this post out there as we speak! It truly feels like a little escape, and being outside surrounded by nature is exactly how I want to be spending my summer. I mentioned in my post on Monday I would share how I did the brick landscaping border in this area, I promise it really easy super easy, because I do not consider myself a landscaper at all! Here’s how I installed this easy landscaping border.

Hello Friends!! I can’t believe that summer is only seconds away! I say that because we are in our last week of school, summer temps are here… and the humidity, and with it just brings the much needed slowdown to a gentler pace. I’ll be sharing some more of our fire pit area on Wednesday for the last installment of the Seasonal Simplicity tour, and then our new outdoor dining area early next week! I can’t wait for you to see everything that’s we’ve done. In the meantime with all my planting, I wanted to show you my potting bench area and how I have it styled for summer.

Master Bedroom Refresh {and a gift for you!}

Hello Friends!! I’m so excited to be sharing our Master Bedroom refresh with all of you today. I think you could say it spurred off of our recent master bathroom makeover. I’ve joked before that once I have a paintbrush in my hands there is no stopping me, lol! What started out to be a little refresh sort of turned into quite the makeover, and I think you will see why. From new paint, to new lights, to a new mattress with new bedding (yes! a new mattress), even my nightstand ended up getting a total overhaul (shown HERE), nothing was safe. However, I will say that having a newly refreshed master bedroom feels so good, I honestly never want to get out of bed, but more on that soon! You may remember me sharing with you some Dark Accent Wall colors I was loving lately in a post HERE. I had been craving some change for quite some time, and a moody wall. Well what was only going to be just a dark accent wall, turned into a whole room being painted, even the doors and trim! Take a look –
